This blog post belongs to the \u201cMental Health in Grad School\u201d genre.<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Probably.\u00a0<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Well, see what you think.<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Winter 2015\u2026 I broke out in hives. It was a confusing experience: I\u2019ve never suffered from hives before, and there\u2019s no history of it in my immediate family. It just seemed like one day, my skin turned red and itched like hell.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They appeared at pressure points\/joints but covered my whole body. Raised welts popped then simmered down \u2013 here one hour, fading to a red mark the next. I have pretty good self-control when it comes to scratching, but they still hurt.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It took a while for me to link the symptoms to \u201chives,\u201d at which point I Googled \u201cantihistamines\u201d and went hunting in Rite Aid for bottles of pills. In the interim, I had trouble sleeping because of the pain. As my body\u2019s natural antihistamines cycled down for the evening, I had to rush out the lab, before my neck and face started to turn reddish purple.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I was given the option of prescription-grade antihistamines, but settled on 2 brands of over-the-counter pills (Zyrtec in the daytime, Benadryl over the night). I figured out that really hot baths just before bed got rid of the pain, as did sleeping on the cool wooden floor if I was unlucky enough to be awake at 2am. The hives went away in the summer\u2026 then came back a little while later. Going off the Zyrtec led to bad flare-ups, but eventually, my body\u2019s natural antihistamines took control.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When first I went to the university health center, they asked me about any lifestyle changes that could have triggered my full-on allergic reaction (diet, laundry detergent, etc.) and I could only shake my head and smile faintly.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Stress was the blatant cause of my hives.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If I was allergic to anything, it was grad school.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

***<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I can handle deadlines, criticism, and failed experiments. I managed 2 years of my PhD without a major autoimmune malfunction. When the stress got too much for my body to handle, was when a series of small, insidious problems piled up.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I moved into a new apartment off campus. I needed to live by myself, but the place I chose sucked up huge quantities of my salary. When home to lab was no longer a 5-minute stroll but required a car journey or 20-minute bike ride, I had to change how I conducted research and structured my day.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Lab mates moved on. The individuals I\u2019d been closest to \u2013 who in fact I\u2019d relied on socially \u2013 had to exit the picture; as group social dynamics shifted, they seemed to cut me out. I was now in charge of several big group responsibilities that had once been split across three people. It felt like I was doing 95% of the work to keep the group functioning\u2026 but getting no \u201csocial rewards\u201d for my effort. A piece of equipment malfunctioned, and the person designated responsible for maintenance pretended it wasn\u2019t. It seemed I was the only person who cared enough to get it fixed. I became angry and resentful.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My project stalled. I\u2019d been lucky to kick off my PhD with a short project that led to a 1st author paper quickly, and had made good progress with tricky projects after that. But when I finally got within the parameters of \u201cpublishable data\u201d once more, I was told to go away and make the data even better. I couldn\u2019t. Months passed.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

From what friends have told me about their own experiences, when grad school goes wrong, it is because of this kind of pile-up. It\u2019s never\u00a0just\u00a0that you have a tough project, or are struggling with your home life, or have lab problems. It\u2019s never\u00a0one\u00a0big disaster that throws you into misery. You probably don\u2019t even realize how bad things have become for you until the demons force their way out.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

***<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For what it\u2019s worth, I went for a session with the university\u2019s counselling services shortly after the hives broke out. For me it didn\u2019t work out: I never scheduled any follow-ups. Partly because recognizing that I could use counselling was simultaneous to (finally) recognizing I had a serious problem I needed to address. I also didn\u2019t connect with the counsellor I was assigned to: I wanted to get\u00a0away\u00a0from feeling upset and angry, not talk for 60 minutes about it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

[My \u201cdo-as-I-say-not-as-I-do\u201d advice would be to try a second or third counsellor if the first one doesn\u2019t work for you. And you probably aren\u2019t going to solve everything (or even\u00a0anything) in your first appointment.]<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Things got better. I\u2019m not sure I was super-proactive, more that I adjusted to the new circumstances and they stopped stressing me out as much. Maybe it\u2019s bad to write a \u201cmental health in grad school\u201d post that argues \u201cwell, y\u2019know, the best way to deal with problems is wait till they fade on their own accord.\u201d But sometimes, that\u2019s just what happens.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Well, a better way of saying that could be, \u201cIt\u2019s not the circumstances but how you react to them that matters.\u201d I could focus on doing my group jobs as professionally as I could, and decide that others\u2019 dereliction of duty wasn\u2019t my problem. When I fixed that piece of equipment, I made it clear to my boss that I\u2019d used my initiative to solve the problem, so I got credit for that. Understanding that circumstantial setbacks weren\u2019t permanent or a reflection of my personal qualities helped too.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Quitting is a valid choice if you experience this kind of mental\/physical health misery. The friends who told me their stories left grad school (all of them, I believe) and were telling me about it 5\u201310 years down the line. They\u2019re all successful adults whose professional trajectories and lives I admire. A PhD is never worth wrecking yourself over.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

***<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My hives are still there. They haven\u2019t erupted in a long time, but they remain under my skin, waiting for the opportunity to flare back up. Next time, though, I\u2019ll be ready.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
